The rest of the NBA — if they weren’t playing — sat glued to the TV watching Kyrie Irving’s shooting performance last night. It wasn’t just current players, either. Anytime someone starts to morph into video game territory, people tune in, and Kyrie’s 57-point overtime performance on TNT certainly qualifies.
Here are some of our favorite reactions on Twitter:
